Popular 19th century French novel, in English translation. According to Wikipedia: 'Joseph Marie Eugène Sue (20 January 1804 - 3 August 1857) was a French novelist... He was strongly affected by the Socialist ideas of the day, and these prompted his most famous works, the 'anti-Catholic' novels: Les Mystères de Paris (10 vols., 1842-1843) and Le Juif errant (tr. 'The Wandering Jew') (10 vols., 1844-1845), which were among the most popular specimens of the roman-feuilleton.'
